The Namibian Ministry of Justice is preparing to move the activities of the Master of the High Court from the legacy system to a newly designed Trust System.

The Ministry will carry out the program in collaboration with Green Enterprise Solutions (Green), a Namibian firm that provides corporate ICT services.

According to Green, there is pressing need for Namibia to upgrade to a robust trust system, which is essential for financial transparency and integrity.

While still functional, the legacy system has limitations that could potentially put the country at risk of becoming a hotbed for illicit finance, with severe repercussions such as blacklisting, as a result the ministry will decommission the present legacy system, said Green.

As part of this initiative, 20 university students and graduates are gaining hands-on experience in data capturing and playing a crucial role in manually transferring essential data.

Their contributions, according to Green, will be the foundation of the new system, ensuring a seamless transition, improving operational efficiency, strengthening financial transparency, and integrity.

To equip participants with the necessary skills, Green conducted an orientation program, covering data handling, and system integration.

“We are excited to begin transferring data into the new system, allowing the Ministry of Justice to fully reap the benefits of this investment," commented Bro-Matthew Niikondo, head of Project Management at Green.
